Right on article. I maintain that cats need to find the PR firm that dogs use and hire them. It always bothers me the level of attention that the dogs get from humans (not that I begrudge them) as compared to the kitties. Go into PetSmart. Half the store is dog stuff while the cats get 1/2 of the balance. Same thing with Hollywood movies. For every cat movie ever made, there are 50 dog movies. And most of those, if they have a cat in them, make the cat the evil protaginist. I have nine rescued cats and each one has a unique personality. They are affectionate and loving, and a joy to come home to.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for this blog. I subscribe through an RSS reader, so I probably don’t show up in page hits (if you’re even looking at that), and I normally only comment if I think I have something worthwhile to add to what you’ve said — which is very infrequent. But I enjoy reading your thoughts on cats, and I’ve learned a lot about my cats. So thank you!

At Thanksgiving a sister-in-law told me about her new cat, and what a joy it was to come home after a long day at work to such a loving and attentive friend. I agreed, and said that anybody who claims that cats are “aloof” has never had one.
My mother came into the room late into the conversation, and she shook her head at us. Her exact words were “But cats are so aloof!”
“Mom–have you ever had a cat?”
“Oh, no!”
“We were just talking about you!”
